Driven by his insatiable need for revenge, Lothaire, the Lore’s most ruthless vampire, plots to seize the Horde’s crown. But bloodlust and torture have left him on the brink of madness—until he finds Elizabeth Peirce, the key to his victory. He captures the unique young mortal, intending to offer up her very soul in exchange for power, yet Elizabeth soothes his tormented mind and awakens within him emotions Lothaire believed he could no longer experience.

A DEADLY FORCE DWELLS WITHIN HER Growing up in desperate poverty, Ellie Peirce yearned for a better life, never imagining she’d be convicted of murder—or that an evil immortal would abduct her from death row. But Lothaire is no savior, as he himself plans to sacrifice Ellie in one month’s time. And yet the vampire seems to ache for her touch, showering her with wealth and sexual pleasure. In a bid to save her soul, Ellie surrenders her body to the wicked vampire, while vowing to protect her heart.

CENTURIES OF COLD INDIFFERENCE SHATTERED Elizabeth tempts Lothaire beyond reason, as only his fated mate could. As the month draws to a close, he must choose between a millennia-old blood vendetta and his irresistible prisoner. Will Lothaire succumb to the miseries of his past . . . or risk everything for a future with her?

AND

“Evil is a completely different creature, Mac. Evil is bad that believes it’s good.”

MacKayla Lane was just a child when she and her sister, Alina, were given up for adoption and banished from Ireland forever.

Twenty years later, Alina is dead and Mac has returned to the country that expelled them to hunt her sister’s murderer. But after discovering that she descends from a bloodline both gifted and cursed, Mac is plunged into a secret history: an ancient conflict between humans and immortals who have lived concealed among us for thousands of years.

What follows is a shocking chain of events with devastating consequences, and now Mac struggles to cope with grief while continuing her mission to acquire and control the Sinsar Dubh—a book of dark, forbidden magic scribed by the mythical Unseelie King, containing the power to create and destroy worlds.

In an epic battle between humans and Fae, the hunter becomes the hunted when the Sinsar Dubh turns on Mac and begins mowing a deadly path through those she loves.

Who can she turn to? Who can she trust? Who is the woman haunting her dreams? More important, who is Mac herself and what is the destiny she glimpses in the black and crimson designs of an ancient tarot card?

From the luxury of the Lord Master’s penthouse to the sordid depths of an Unseelie nightclub, from the erotic bed of her lover to the terrifying bed of the Unseelie King, Mac’s journey will force her to face the truth of her exile, and to make a choice that will either save the world . . . or destroy it.

Take a moment and check out the rest of the great books in these two series!!

Immortals After Dark Series

by Kresley Cole

Introduction to the Immortals After Dark

Every creature or being that was thought to be mythical . . . isn’t.

They all secretly exist alongside humans and enjoy the gift of immortality. There are hundreds of different kinds: from Vampires to Lykae, from Furies to Shifters, from the Fey to Valkyries.

These immortals call their world The Lore.

You may have had a brush with one of Lorekind already. The eccentric billionaire with hypnotic charisma—and an aversion to sunlight. The ethereal waif of impossible beauty—whose fingernails look more like claws. The Highlander with a seventeenth-century Scottish accent and animal magnetism—who can never be penciled in on the night of the full moon.

They walk among us, but they war among themselves. Each faction has its strengths, weaknesses, and age old prejudices against the others. Every five hundred years, the Accession, a battle for supremacy, rages. That time is now. . . .

Kresley Cole is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the electrifying Immortals After Dark paranormal series, as well as five award-winning historical romances.

Before becoming a writer, Cole was a world-ranked athlete, coach, and graduate student. She has traveled over much of the world and draws from those experiences to create her memorable characters and settings. Two of her favorite places to visit include the rain forests of Central America and the Far North Queensland area of Australia (where, by the way, she would not recommend swimming outside of the stinger nets--at night).

Cole’s trademark action, sensuality, and humor are best exemplified in herImmortals After Dark Series, which revolves around the Lore, a secret stratum of hundreds of immortal creatures--ranging from Vampires to Lykae, Furies to Shifters, and Fey to Valkyrie--that each have their strengths, weaknesses, and age old prejudices against the others. Though they secretly live among humans, they constantly war among themselves, which gives her a lot of material.

Her IAD books have been translated into seventeen foreign languages, garnered two RITA awards, and consistently appear on the bestseller lists, in the U.S. and abroad.

Cole lives in Florida with her family and “far too many animals.” She spends any free time traveling and enjoys all things related to boats and water.

While the Highlander and Fever series are two separate series, they take place in the same universe and PNA is highly recommending that you read them in the order shown. Karen's voice in each series is unique and together they enhance each other.

Karen Marie Moning (rhymes with 'awning') is the # 1 New York Times bestselling author of 12 novels, including the Rita-award winning Highlander novels and the internationally bestselling urban fantasy Fever series. Her books have been published in 21 languages, and her events draw fans from all over the world.
Moning began her career writing paranormal romance set in Scotland but as she became increasingly fascinated with Celtic mythology, she switched genres to Urban Fantasy and location to Dublin, Ireland, so she could focus on the Tuatha de Danann, or Fae--an ancient race of immortal beings who have lived secretly among humans for millennia.

Moning is currently completing a graphic novel for Del Rey, featuring an original story about MacKayla Lane and Jericho Barrons, and has contracted with Random House Publishing Group for three more books set in the Fever universe. She divides her time between the mountains of Georgia and the beaches of Florida.

I'm a LONG TIME fan of Kresley Cole, but I've not read any of Ms Moning's work...yet. However, she's been in my TBR pile for quite sometime. So many books...but only so much time, ya know? I also like Gena Showalter, Lora Leigh, Pamela Palmer, J.R. Ward...and so many, many more!! Thx for this AWESOME giveaway op! :)

Barbara, ohhhh if you like Cole/Showalter/Leigh/Ward you'd ADORE Karen's books! She's actually on my #1 favorite author list... the other 10 after her might change in order but she's always number 1 for me :) Kresley is normally 2nd for me as well :) and I adore Gena, Lora, J.R. as well :) and I like her Druids/Barrons from Fever series better than the brothers and I <3 them LOL :) You should definitely give her a try! ;)

Devan ohh you really should grab the Highlander series... they actually go better "before" the Fever series but you can start the Highlander ones and re-read the fever ones.. you'll see characters in the highlander ones that you see later on in the fever series.. it makes it a more rewarding experience going "Hmm, I know that guy, wasn't he in XX book?" LOL :)

Congrats on the all the fans, you guys are awesome and so is the giveway! I have started IAD series and KMM series have been on my TBR list for too long. I'm a huge fan of JR Ward, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Jeanienne Frost, I could go on and on!

Laurie aww why thank you! I thought it was a fun giveaway myself too :) How are you liking the IAD series so far? I adore the both authors/series :) as a matter of fact they are in my top #2 favorite authors :) Of course JR Ward, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Jeaniene Frost are some of my favorites too! :) Have you tried the Kate Daniels series by Ilona Andrews?? Or the otherworld series by Yasmine Galenorn? Or how about both Larissa Ione's lovely series?? XD I'm sure you have but just in case you haven't I can definitely recommend them :)

Gloria ohhh really? That's amazing! Cole definitely sets a high bar for the next on your list then! lol :) I stopped reading for many years, busy with life.. and then I picked up the Twilight series because I was SO tired of everyone ranting/raving how GREAT it was.. I was like "This sounds lame, I'm going to read it so I can you all that you are crazy and that it sucked!" Needless to say, it didn't suck and I got sucked back into reading :) I think Karen was one of my firsts after that, along with Charlaine Harris, Sherrilyn Kenyon... I went by Amazon reviews and just bought the whole series at one time, Haven't regretted my crazy journey since! :)

Ilona that's awesome.. Kresley is a gem, she's amazing and sweet in real life too! :) and Karen's books are truly amazing.. I liked her books so much and my best friend wouldn't buy them, so one day near her birthday, I bought her the entire Highlander/Fever series... needless to say I didn't get to talk to her for a few weeks because she was too busy devouring the books LOL ;)

She's amazing :) She has this ability to weave this magical world that you can see in your mind... truly gifted! I love how there are such a variety of paranormal creatures and they aren't all the "normal" paranormal ones either.. she reinvents paranormal :)

You're welcome! These are super awesome authors.. I adore a series myself! Love books that go at least 5 and up to 25 :D they make me happy :) I've never heard of Rebecca York before, I'll have to check her out. How many books does she have?

Thanks everyone for their entries! Please keep in mind if you post something like "great giveaway" but don't reply to the blog post question, if I pick your name and I see that you wrote just that instead of replying to the question, I'll be picking a new name! Not to be picky but its not hard to leave a quick comment answering the question :) its clearly listed :D Thanks for your understanding, if you need to delete your comment and repost that's fine :)

IAD is by far my favorite Paranormal adult series of all time. Kresley is amazing and Lothaire has always been one of favorite characters. Hopefully Nix will get her book soon. I love KMM Highlander Series. Big fan of both women.

I agree! I adore both authors! Have you tried KMM's Fever series too? ;) Nix will get her own story but when I met Kresley I don't think she's planning on doing Nix anytime soon! I know she's planning on doing Furie and Kristoff though! LOL

Fantastic giveaway :)I am a HUGE fan of Kresley Cole and have read many of her books. It is my first time hearing of Karen Marie Moning, but from what i've seen here i am sure i will enjoy her books. I will be on the look out. J.R.Ward and Kate Douglas are two other paranormal author favorites of mine.

Hiyas Kylie! Nice seeing you here! hehe! :) Kresley is amazing! Ohhh you should really try KMM, if you like Kresley/JR Ward you'd ADORE Kmm's books :) her males aren't as alpha as like the Brothers per say (well Barrons in the Fever series is) but the males in the highlanders are definitely alpha material :) I've re-read her series at least 5 times LOL!

I am a huge IAD fan. In fact, I even roleplay in an IAD group. I play Mariketa MacRieve. She's so bad ass. I have read Karen Marie Moning's Highlander series but have been meaning to read her Fever series as well hopefully will be able to do so soon. :)

whooohooo, Hi Kitty! :) Mariketa is one of my FAVORITE characters in the IAD series.. I adore her! :) Not sure what it is but she and Emma are like my two favorites.. that's not to say I don't love the others as well.. but for whatever reason, those two just stick with me :) the books/characters :) You'd love her Fever series :) very masculine/alpha type characters and sexual tension for awhile.. its crazy hot lol :)

I've read some of Karen Marie Moning books but not all. I'm working on it. I haven't read Kresley Cole work at all yet, but both have been on my to-read list for a while now. I'll get there soon enough. Hopefully sooner rather than later. Amazing giveaway hun! Thanks for the chance to win! :)DeAnna Schultz

OH wow I have read only two of the books and love them! I have not read any Kresley Cole yet, but have been told it is a must read for me! THANKS for the awesome giveaway! CONGRATS on the fan goal met! What an awesome thing to have achieved!

I have not read any of the books by these authors. I have them on my TBR list tho. :-) I love Dawn Gray, Tich Brewster, Michele Hauf, Shannon Drake, Merline Lovelace, Felicity Heaton to name a few authors I love.

I have read Kresley Cole. The "first" stand alone book. I did love it it was just enough romance and spark for me. I'm not a full Romance person so the paranormal twist was AWESOME. As for other paranormal authors? I like Sherrilyn Kenyon, Diana Love, Thea Harrison, Karen Chance (Give me Dori any day!), Jim Butcher.. thats just to name a few ;)

I am a HUGE fan of KMM's Fever Series (OMG Jericho Barrons)and Kresley Cole's IAD Series. I hope I win since I don't own either of their series (public libraries rock!) and I want to start collecting them. Who else do I like? Ilona Andrew's Kate Daniels series, Karen Chance's Cassandra Palmer series and Nalini Singh's Guild Hunter series.

These two authors are beyond words amazing. I have read all of Karen Marie Monings books and can not get enough of the 2 very different worlds of the Highlanders and Fever. Thank you for this wonderful giveaway. I am dying to read Lothaire. I need more Kresley Cole to add to my collection of treasured books.

I'm a huge fan of both Kresley Cole and Karen Marie Moning. IAD was one of the first PNR series' I'd ever read and I actually waited until the entire Fever series was out and did a weekend marathon and read them all at once. Yummmy Barrons!

I am a KMM Fever fan freak - can't wait for Iced this fall!! I have her Highlander series on my wishlist. And I've not read any of Kressley's books yet - she's also on my wishlist. I hear her books are just as good as the Warden's BDB series (be still my heart!) - can't wait to start them!

I've wanted to get Kresley's books since I found out about the genre T________TI've heard all kinds of awesome things and people tell me her books are one of the faves out there :'( and I hate the fact that here they just have like random numbers of different books from different series of hers T_TTHANK YOU SO VERY VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! for the opportunity!! It's one I'm soooo crossing my fingers to win!! And I hadn't heard of Karen before this post! So I'm going to be checking some of the descriptions now :D As for my favorite PR author....It's Jeaniene Frost >.< I'm completely in love with all her male characters >.< and I envy all her female characters :DI haven't read many PR besides hers and some here and there :D I'm kind of new to the genre...though, I love romance and adult and the likes :D you get it...And I go before I continue rambling and bore you to sleep :D

Hi Alba :) Kresley is super amazing! :) We did our post nice (Toni mainly LOL) but we wanted to show the correct books in the correct reading order so fans who were new could see which ones go where :) And you're very welcome, I wish you good luck! :)Karen is also amazing, she's like my top fav author, LOVE her, if you read her though, go for the Higlanders THEN the Fever series :) Jeaniene Frost is one of my favorite authors too.. I LOVE Bones and Vlad, heck I love them all ROFL ;) If you ever need book recommendations feel free to read our reviews or email us or even post on our Paranormal Addicts page :) I've converted many fans to new authors to them and they love it! Just ask Sofia and Lorre LOL :) and you're welcome to ramble anytime ;) Thanks so much for stopping by!

I have not read Kresley Cole yet... although I own all of the books, except Lothaire. They are high up on my TBR list, though, because they definitely sound like books I would love! I have read a couple of Karen Marie Moning's Highlander series, and loved them! I own all of them, as well as all of the Fever series, except for Shadowfever, just haven't gotten around to reading the rest yet! Again, very high up on my TBR list. I just run into the age-old problem: Too many books, too little time!

Jess OMG you have all the Kresley books and haven't read yet? *dies* they are SUPER amazing!!!! Glad to find another KMM fan :) both her series are super amazing, if you like her you will LOVE Kresley :D put them high up on your TBR hehe! and I have that SAME problem! Never enough time for all the books... read one, add 5 more to the list! its a vicious cycle ;)

I am ashamed to say that, No - I haven't read either of their books. I would love to though :) I am just starting to read books by Jennifer Malone Wright, Willow Cross and Karen Nichols - haven't had a lot of time to read lately. Angel of Vengeance by Trevor O. Munson is the book that became Moonlight - everyone that knows me, knows that this is what got me started with writing my own Paranormal books and so would have to be my fave :)

Ihave read all the Fever series books from Karen and they are one of my favorites, but I havent yet had the opportunity to readanything by Kresley Cole. My favorite authors are Kim Harrison,Chloe Neill and Karen Chance.

I absolutely LOVE these authors! Kresley Cole's "A Hunger Like No Other" will be on my Keeper Shelf forEVER! And I just finished reading Bloodfever by Karen Marie Moning -- was blown away. Great, great stuff!

I had the pleasure of reading all five books in the Fever series by Karen Marie Moning towards the end of last year. A group of my girlfriends and I decided to begin a mini-book club here in our local area, and Fever was the first series we read together.. and what a way to start it off! I was hooked from book 1, I was scooped up and swallowed whole.. kind of like if I hadn't stayed to the lights. *grins* I am currently reading the Highlander series for the second time.. that being said, LOVE KMM!

As for Kresley Cole - she is my FAVORITE! I started IAD and haven't put them down in over a year... I think I've re-read straight through the series nearly 7 times now. Ahh! Addicted! Her heroines aren't like any other - smart mouthed, bad ass, and totally one hundred percent in possession of a backbone! Actually, this may be nerdy as hell to admit - but I am an IAD role player. I am happily a glowing Valkyrie with the best mate in the world.. helping me to stay in one of my favorite worlds ever imagined and put into print! Ok, I should stop there.. haha. I'll start to look back if I continue on...

I haven't read from these ladies but their books have been on my TBR list. I think I am going to shuffle the list a little to get these ladies closer to the top!! Some of my favorite paranormal authors are J R Ward with her BDB series, Laura Wright and her Mark of the Vampire series, Lora Leigh and her breeds series, and Lauren Dane and the Phantom Ops series!!Thanks for the giveaway!!

I haven't read any Kresley Cole books before. Her IAD series sounds interesting though I haven't found the time to start them yet. From these comments it sounds like I should start them soon. You guys reading so much fun.

I have read KMM's Fever series and it is amazing. I love Barrons! I haven't read her Highlander series, I probably will someday. I have her Fever World series on my TBR list. KMM is a an amazing writer.

Umm...other PNR authors I've read, J.R. Ward's BDB series is pretty awesome. Haven't read the latest one yet because I want to read it closer to the release date of Qhuinn and Blay's book(2013!). :)

i've read KMM's fever series, and i soooooo loved it. but i really scared picking up book 3-4, i already knew what would happen to mac there (i skipped the to know how the series ended) and i don't have the heart to read the story in details. it's so sad, and scary >__<

Hi Chelsea, Great giveaway Thankyou and Thankyou for making it International, I love Kresley Cole, I have never read Karen Marie Moning I am ashamed to say, but I will be putting her on my TBR list, I am loving all the covers, love a cover with a pic of a man body part on, now come on don't be rude, you know I meant arm's, lip's, torso, that kind of thing, right, lol, my all time fave paranormal write has to be Sherrilyn Kenyon, Gracen Miller, Willow Cross, Kymberlee Burks-Miller, Dani Harper or Kelley Armstrong, love all of their work, it's so hard to narrow it down to just a couple, as I like them all for different reasons, Thankyou again x x

Thank you so much for this great giveaway and congrats on all the LIKES for your FB page!!

My favorite PNR author is extremely hard to say because I love so many. Each is just a bit different. If I had to pick....it would be a toss up between Lara Adrian's Midnight Breed and Gena Showalter's Lord's of the Underworld, followed by Kresley Cole's IAD. I have been a fan of Kresley's books almost from the beginning and Lothaire, is my favorite character in her books. Love how he has morphed into the character he is currently. I've not read his book yet, waiting for paperback. Though I have heard of Karen, I have not yet read any of her books, but hope to in the near future. So much great stuff is said about her that I know her series must be great!

I haven't read either but I see their awesome covers all the time at work and they seem super awesome! Hmm, I don't have any favorites so far. I've pretty much liked all the paranormal books I've read but no one pops out at the moment.

Congratulations on reaching your milestone – and what a wonderful giveaway!

I'm a fan of both Kresley and Karen. I've read most of Karen's IAD series (A Hunger Like No Other is one of my all time fave books, and other faves in the series are The Warlord Wants Forever, Dreams of a Dark Warrior and, of course, Lothaire!!).

I've also read and loved both Karen's Highlander series (ooher, Adam!! Not to mention Daegus and his magnums - and I'm not talking ice creams or guns!!) and the darker UF Fever series (Barrons is to die for!!). Other fave PNR/UF authors are lona Andrews (Kate Daniels series), Karen Chance (both Cassandra Palmer and Dory series) and Nalini Singh (Guild Hunter series).

I love Kresley Cole's IAD series (one of my favorite PNR series) and I've read a couple of Karen Marie Moning's Highlander books. Hopefully soon I'll be able to get back to that series because I've really enjoyed what I've read so far :-)

I haven't read any books by either authors, but I'd love to. Some of my favourite paranormal authors are Charlaine Harris, Laurell K. Hamilton, Stephen King, Willow cross and many more, too many to list.
